ABOUT CAMILA MALDI

Associate in the Litigation & Dispute Resolution and Competition & Foreign Investment groups at Dentons.My litigation practice focuses on complex commercial litigation and arbitration, including shareholders oppression claims, class action defence, cartel defence and complex commercial disputes. I also advises clients in competition, antitrust and foreign direct investment matters. Prior to moving to Canada, I was an associate lawyer with one of the top three law firms in Brazil for competition law. My practice included conducting internal investigations for antitrust violations, defending clients against the Brazilian watchdog agency (CADE), and bringing judicial review applications to the Brazilian Federal Courts.My interest in litigation dates to my clerkship with the Hon. Justice José Araldo da Costa Telles at the São Paulo Court of Appeal. I was routinely engaged in deliberations on a broad array of civil and commercial disputes in appeal proceedings. This experience allowed me to better understand the judicial process and learn the importance of court procedures.I obtained a bachelor degree in international relations, civil law degrees from University of São Paulo (USP) and Université Jean Moulin – Lyon 3, and a LLM degree from McGill University. This formal training and the ability to speak several languages provides me with a strong legal foundation to support and assist national and international clients. I also sit on the Board of Directors of the Canadian Council for the Americas.
